Behavioral interviews, experiential questions, followed by an open ended design exercise slash thought experiment. Not too difficult but was also interviewed by a very junior PM straight out of college.

Question 1
Asked to design a fridge and then fabricate a market response. Almost so open-ended as to be meaningless.
Start with phone interview and then you have to do a presentation followed by 1:1 with key xfn stakeholders. Interviews are pretty standard PM rounds and the presentation is the most important -- spend a good chunk of time preparing for it -- if you nail that down, rest of the interviews become just about selling you on Asana.

Question 1
Presentation was about showing my favorite project -- make sure to nail this presentation.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Asana (San Francisco, CA) in Nov 2022
Interview
I had a shortened interview because I had already interviewed with Asana earlier this year and got to the final round. First Round: I had a discussion with the hiring manager, which was mostly behavioral questions and getting to know me better. I then proceeded to the final round. Final Round: Again since this was a shorted interview, the final round consisted of a presentation, chat with an engineering manager, and then another chat with the hiring manager. • Presentation (45 mins): I was asked to present a project I've worked on that is closely related to the position I was applying for. • Chat with Engineering Manager (30 mins): we mostly chatted through some of the technical challenges on the team and how I would think through those challenges. Quite unstructured and felt more like a conversation that I would normally have with an EM at work. I really enjoyed that part and the way it was conducted. • Another chat with Hiring Manager (30 mins): a deeper dive into behavioral questions. Overall the process was smooth, and (not counting Thanksgiving break) it took about a week to interview and another week to get a decision on my application. The recruiter was incredibly helpful and her communication was top-notch. She answered all of my questions and sought more context from the hiring committee in a timely manner whenever she didn't have an answer for my questions. Overall, this is one of the best interview experiences that I have had and regardless of receiving an offer, I genuinely enjoyed it just like I enjoyed the one I did with Asana earlier this year. It's a great testament to their incredible culture.

Question 1
Your regular behavioral questions; nothing caught me off-guard really. Technical interview was more of a conversation that an actual interview but it was still rigorous.
